My frist two cars were 57 Chevs, so they have a special place in my heart,

BUT I woud have to go with the 60's Mopars they had true style!!

IMHO, the 1948 Hudsons shocked the automotive world with their 'stepdown' design... For years the Mecury folks have been chopping their cars, to get them to look like a Hudson did and does stock. Until the movie 'Cars' came out, every time someone saw a Hudson, it was "Hey, thats a nice looking chopped Merc..."

Your listing of cars to choose from is very narrow and limiting, probably due to individual taste. There have been a lot of cars that made the automotive world take note of due to their styling queues, but only a there are only couple are in your list that I would consider, and at least one in the list is much too generic - 60's Mopars (?)...

I'm for the Mopars, but you have to start with '57, or even '55. And drop that "classic" terminology. You really mean "collector cars." Yeah, a lot of these are classics in the "lower case c" sense, but the term is over used to mean anything that's considered an old car. And to ask for a pick of best styling, you really have to do it by era. What we call the classics of the fifties or sixties are a whole different thing than the "true classic" Duesenbergs, Auburns, Packards, etc., of the twenties and thirties.
